Request UMMU Compatible Helicopter?

Not sure what is next. I can put all of them except the Bell47 together. Any issues?. I am still working on it.

Now you should be able to transport Ummu's or cargo lift items with the Copters.

That is next then. :cheers::lol:

Just kidding. :tiphat:
 
Isn't that the cockpit from a NH90? So maybe a 2d panel of the cockpit? Never done one. Place MFD where the screens are

this is what I have right now

Yeah, it is one. But I am more a fan of VCs than Panel2D. Though the coloration of the sticks could also be corrected. The displays are standard PFD/EICAS.

I can change the colors of the sticks to a gray color. I can just cut the front off an then you would have a VC mesh. But coding it is another thing. I not sure how you would deal with a rear view. Or would you use the same mesh minus thing like the gear in wish you can't see.

I think I could animate the sticks. gear lever,... Not sure about the mfd in the front. though

Well, without a manual, it would be pretty hard making a full VC for it. A simple basic VC would be the maximum currently. Not sure if removing the mesh is actually needed. You could also just add a VC mesh over the existing cockpit mesh.
 
Ok. I'll see what I can throw together. Where should the point of view?

At the pilot would be good. The copilot view could be downward for helping during landing.
 
As far as a VC and subsystems modeling is concerned I still have my old Sikorsky NFMs, unfortunatly they're hard copies not .PDFs but I can do my best to answer questions.

For which helicopter? For the start, it would always be good to have a drawing of the cockpit as reference.

H-3H (Seaking) and H-60 (Blackhawk/Knighthawk) models (B, F, H, and S)

I did my initial Crewchief's qualification (approx 20 hrs) on the H-3H but was a H-60 guy by trade (approx 1800 hrs across the versions listed above).

ETA: I'll need to barrow a scanner or bring 'em to school, but I'll see what I can do.

Wohoo!

It's amazing what you can find on the internet when you know what search terms to use. (publication numbers/dates are powerful tools)

Try this new mesh and DLL. Fixed the colors. They were a multiple material item. Animated sticks, collective, pedals. Not sure on the direction. Added an extra view in the left seat.

Doesn't the pilot sit in the left seat and the copilot in the right seat in Helicopters? I know that the SH-60s have their pilot in the left seat and the [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TACCO"]TACCO[/ame] in the right one.

I think I'll cut the door out. On the VC I am using the same mesh. So I doubled all animations so the rotos turn on the vc and external mesh.

I have the main mesh set to always.

I might could fit a mfd into the screen but not sure if you would be able to read any info off of them.
